2003 Jetta GL Wagon, Indigo Blue, 146k miles

This TDI was purchased new by Clay Peyton, a founding TDIClub member. He was the only owner and driver of this car. I purchased it today. Garaged when not in use.

Black cloth interior
5 speed
Alloy wheels 16 inch Conti tires
NO sunroof
Rubber mats
All keys (3)

Timing belt system services ~100k by me

Just after purchase, the following mods were installed:
-.205 nozzles
-H & R springs and Koni shocks/struts. The original springs/struts/shocks are boxed in car.
-VDO boost and oil pressure gauges in A pillar mount

Other mods:
-Class 1/2 hitch
-Sony double din flatscreen stereo system w/remote. Bluetooth. OEM stereo in car.
-Spare steelies w/hubcaps x 4, with mounted snow tires in car, included.
-Elephant nose for much of it’s life
-Tinted windows

The bad:
-Mild rust noted around hatch glass, and hatch edges. This is common on 15 year old wagons
-Rust bubble forming at base of right front fender. I suspect mulch in fender liner as culprit
-Noticeable door ding right quarter panel below fuel door
-A/C does not work..Clay reports bad compressor
-I suspect it needs sway bar and lower control arm bushings. Drives nice but occasional clunk

I will be unable to do any significant work on this cars due to inability to access garage at this time. I can do routine services on the car prior to delivery at purchasers request/expense.

I will edit this as I find things I have missed.

This car can not leave Kentucky until I receive the new title. This will take up to 21 days. Car will remain solely posted here only until I receive title. It will then go to craigslist and Facebook marketplace.

$3500 for what some consider the grail in TDI wagons.

Tentatively sold to Johnboy, awaiting title to complete transaction.
Baby’s gonna need a heater to live near Chill and IBW! Used to our SE winters...;). At least he has proper shoes.

Awesome! I'll look forward to seeing it visit IDParts! That's a nice looking car (and not just because it's blue). And very low miles. Congrats, John!

I'm looking forward to keeping 3 tdis in the family, although I came really close to getting a Lexus Hybrid.

My wife thinks I'm crazy, and I just might have to agree with her. :D

I was surprised that it lasted for almost a week. I didn't notice the ad until it was popped up on Wednesday.

End of the saga.

Picked up John at the Cinci airport. Stopped long enough to put Massachusetts tags on it.
He’s on his way home.

Thanks for meeting me. Great ride back on the highway but this car is a little too low and too stiff for Massachusetts potholes. Will be looking into a suspension upgrade/downgrade in the near future. Still a great car and I'm glad I found it.

Glad you made the trip without any incidents. One never knows with a new (to you) car. If the original springs are in good condition you may just want to swap those back in and keep the Konis.
